Released by the Garcia family in 2014, the My Father Connecticut responds to a demand from fans for a milder My Father. The company calls it the "best Connecticut in the market today", a mild offering with strong flavor and just a bit of spice. With binder and fillers from Nicaragua and an Ecuadorian Shade Grown Connecticut, this one is definitely a great morning smoke.

Cigar Wrapper

Ecuadorian Connecticut Shade

The wrapper is the last tobacco leaf to be rolled on the cigar, so it is the one the smoker will see.Ecuador is the perfect place to grow wrappers, because it is located on the Equator! And it has rich soils too. The weather conditions, with a nearly permanent cloudy sky, provide a natural shade, protecting the wrapper plants from sunshine and allowing the tobacco to grow thin and light. This climate allows tobacco growers to grow Connecticut-seed wrapper in the shade without shade cloths, resulting in more economical wrapper.

Cigar Binder

Nicaraguan Corojo

The binder is a full tobacco leaf that is used to roll the cigar, binding the filler tobaccos together.

Cigar Filler

Nicaraguan Criollo

Filler is the term used to describe the tobacco inside a cigar or the "guts" of the cigar.
